The Anaheim peppers where presser canned in water and they are just like the green chiles at the store.

No pain no gain! :ep

The Ancho peppers I roasted and cored then bagged in half pounds and froze. The jalapenos I sliced and pickled 7 qt and 7 pints. Today I will can the Anaheim diced. I am also making 3 types of salsa. Harvested over 100 lbs. of tomatoes and most were still green so green tomato salsa is next in...

It was time to harvest the peppers. The raised bed in the hoop house, in a 3' by 20' bed I planted 2 rows of peppers. Ancho, Jalapeno, and Anaheim. I harvested 45 lbs. of peppers. If I can hold out and keep them from freezing I might get another 10 or 15 lbs.

I'm in zone 4/5 it hit 100 two days ago. No trees or bushes even close to turning. I still have blueberries on the bush. We did have a late start to spring this year.

thistlebloom said, I actually have two, the neighbor lady was going to give me her late husbands, but I bought it from her, and I have my original 20 something year old that needs some carb work done. I've been really happy with them. Now dh and I can shred side by side, when we want a...

Use plastic barrels filled with water to line the inside walls with a shelf on top. Paint them black and they will heat up in the day and stay warm at night.

The plastic on the hoop house is doing great. There have been some high winds but no holes. It's also only 4 mil.. The weather is hot now 90 + in the day but it still will drop to 45 at night. We had a 49 degree difference in low and high temp one day.

Well, I'm back on again! Along with the greenhouse I also built a hoop house that is 12' by 24' just for tomatoes and peppers. We had hard frost this spring through middle of May so things started a bit slow but I got the garden going. Here are some picts of the hoop house. Here is a pick...

Spring is still 3 months away :hit

I love Peppers, any kind, and onions, Walla Walla sweets, and tomatoes, and spinach, and beats the greens mostly. I love to eat. I like to can but I cut salt out of my diet so I need to find salt free salsa and stewed tomato recipes. I do grow a few potatoes but they don't keep long enough in...

Got about 3 feet of top soil on the lower section about 12 ac. I just take the backhoe down skim off what I need to fill the raised beds. Clean out the goat house first put that in the bottom, mix compost with the topsoil and good to plant

Yep! 4 months old and 45lb shepherd, lab and I think some hound dog. 8,12,and 4, 3 full cups of food and he HOWLS if your late. I did gun shows in Montana a few years back, always drove over Lolo pass.

I like sugar in my coffee, and I have tried everything, but nothing is as good as cane sugar. If your old enough to remember the song.... C&H...pure cane sugar... from Hawaii... growin" in the sun......

I have 30 ac on the St. Maries river we can get a frost any time of the year. The greenhouse was ok down to 20deg then it went down to 10 and things froze. Im trying to over winter onions and garlic in raised beds with about foot of straw on them, ill find out come spring.

The new CFL lights work great. I use the 200 or 300W in a reflector.

Those would work great to keep the deer out of the garden.

Thanks all! Im about 20 miles south of St. Maries ID now. I scanned a couple picts of the greenhouse inside and being built and me and the garden, about 16 years ago.

Hi all! Im new to this forum but not new to gardening. I have had a garden off and on for 45 years. A few years ago I lived in Lewiston ID I made a 10' X 16' greenhouse. It had 4' stub walls with 8' rafters. 2x4 framing with lexan on the roof and 10 mil vinyl on the inside, so two layers of...
